"We are using our actions to play our role and contribute our strength to world peace and stability!"
Mifune's decision left all his subordinates present dumbfounded and incredulous.
At that very moment, the door to their conference room was violently pushed open.
To be precise, the door wasn't pushed open, but rather blasted open by some powerful force.
After a loud "boom", billowing smoke and dust followed.
Everyone's eyes instinctively turned towards the doorway, where a figure seemed to be standing amidst the smoke and dust.
Instantly, everyone, including Mifune, became alert.
"Have they arrived already...?"
Cold sweat involuntarily broke out on Mifune's face.
He thought it was Uchiha Ryosuke leading his men to attack.
At that moment, the man outside the door stepped in.
Soon everyone could see his appearance clearly.
Surprisingly, this person did not appear to be a ninja. He did not wear the usual ninja attire, nor did he wear any headband or identification markings.
It seems that this person is more like a monk than a ninja.
His bald head was covered only by a long, ponytail-like braid.
Below his left eye was a distinctive mark “` 〃IV”, and he wore a wide white robe with black stripes on the cuffs and hem.
After swaggering in, the man glanced at everyone's faces before finally fixing his gaze on Mifune's.
Mifune's hand was already on the hilt of his katana.
Noticing the man's gaze fixed on him, he immediately asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?"
The remaining warriors were also on high alert, each one as if facing a formidable enemy, and were ready for battle.
If this man—no, this guy who looks like a monk—dares to make any rash move, they will rush up and hack him to death.
"Introduce yourself."
The monk spoke.
His tone was extremely cold, almost inhuman.
Everyone present, including Mifune, showed a solemn expression upon hearing this, their brows furrowing deeply as they stared at the man with deep doubt.
“My name is Cixuan, and from today onwards, this will be the stronghold of ‘Shell’.”
After the monk finished his self-introduction, he looked at Mifune as if nothing had happened.
The latter asked in a deep voice, "What is a shell?"
They have now confirmed that the man is not a ninja from Konoha.
From his self-introduction, it's clear he comes from a mysterious organization called "Shell".
However, no one here had ever heard of this organization.
"Don't you want to?"
Instead of responding to Mifune's question, Jigen coldly countered with his own.
At the same time, everyone immediately felt the terrifying killing intent emanating from him.
Instantly, everyone's expression changed drastically.
“We don’t know your background or your purpose. Even if we agree to let you (Qian Zhao) use this place as a base, we still need to find out these things first!”
"If you're going to try and force us, we're not going to take this lying down!"
Mifune had no idea what kind of being he was facing.
He stood up.
He gripped his katana tightly with his hand.
As the leader of the Iron Country, an unknown person suddenly appeared and said such extremely rude things in front of so many subordinates.
He had to put on an act and show off.
Otherwise, it would be too unworthy of this identity.
However, the moment Mifune finished speaking, his subordinate, Okisuke, stepped forward first.
How can the leader personally engage in combat with others?
As one of the high-ranking members of the Land of Iron, it was only natural for me to stand up and face the enemy at this time.
Okisuke has already drawn his sword.
He strode forward and pointed his sword at Cixuan.
"You rude fellow, that's enough. If you continue to offend our leader of the Land of Iron, you'll be bleeding on the spot!"
"Is it?"
Ci Xuan didn't take his opponent seriously at all.
He walked towards the other person step by step.
"presumptuous!"
When Chongjie saw the enemy walking towards him, he immediately felt a strong threat.
Driven by instinct, he swung his sword and slashed fiercely at Cixuan.
Chakra naturally adheres to the blade, and when the katana is swung, the chakra, as sharp as the blade itself, is released as sword energy.
The power of this strike was truly as sharp as cutting through iron, and it was indestructible.
However, the sword energy chakra flying towards Jigen seemed to encounter some invisible barrier, stopping two meters in front of him and unable to advance any further.
In the blink of an eye, these chakra blades had completely disappeared.
Before anyone could react, the vanished chakra blade energy suddenly reappeared.
And they flew towards Chongjie at an even faster speed.
Chapter 133 Monk! Cixuan! Container!
"Whoosh-"
A cold light flashed.
Chongjie's body froze in mid-air, as if petrified.
The entire room fell silent.
No one knew what had happened, including Mifune.
But their hearts were pounding in their chests, and they couldn't hide their nervousness.
Until, with a clang, the katana in Chosuke's hand fell to the ground.
Then, his head rolled off like a watermelon.
Only then did everyone realize just how terrifying the enemy was.
"Protect Mifune-sama!!"
Another samurai leader, who was also Mifune's confidant, saw this and quickly came to his senses.
He shouted and drew his sword, charging forward first.
This angry shout immediately startled the others.
All the samurai present, except for Mifune, drew their swords and charged at Jigen.
They intend to tear the enemy to pieces here.
Mifune's expression, however, was extremely solemn.
His subordinates might not have noticed, but he saw it very clearly just now.
The man used some kind of ninjutsu that could reflect and absorb damage.
Faced with such a terrifying existence, they might be completely powerless to fight back, but that's not necessarily true.
Mifune was already keeping a close eye on Jigen's every move.
He wanted to find the enemy's weakness.
It only takes a moment.
If that opening appears, I can complete the attack in an instant.
His aura was low and restrained, his chakra surging within him, and he assumed a proper posture with his hand already on the hilt of his sword, ready to unleash a draw slash at any moment.
However, Mifune was too naive.
The moment his men charged toward Cixuan, they were suddenly blown away by an invisible force.
The 360-degree blade-shaped chakra shockwave instantly killed all the samurai except for the inner corner.
Everyone seemed to have died under an invisible samurai sword.
All of them were killed with a single blow.
Mifune and Rikka were both dumbfounded.
In the blink of an eye, only the two of them were left alive.
"too strong..."
"Lord Mifune! You must leave here immediately! I'll hold him off!!"
Rikkaku wasn't stupid either; he immediately assessed the situation and shouted at Mifune.
However, Li Jiao was still oversimplifying things.
He had barely finished speaking when he became the target of the attack.
Ci Xuan merely raised his hand at him, and suddenly three strange black rods pierced through his body.
His body instantly became immobile, and his chakra became extremely disordered, making it impossible to use.
"My body...it's actually..."
Li Jiao stared in disbelief at the black rod on his arm, then subconsciously looked down at the identical black rod on his chest.
Before he could finish speaking, his vision went black and he collapsed to the ground.
Now, only Mifune and one other person remain.
"Qiang!"
Despite feeling extremely apprehensive inside.
However, Mifune still drew his katana.
He looked at Cixuan with a serious expression: "What exactly do you want, Cixuan!"
"Those who can't understand me don't need to be kept alive, so you can die here too."
As Cixuan responded, he suddenly appeared in front of Mifune in a flash.
This time, he neither used ninjutsu nor unleashed chakra, but instead fought Mifune using only taijutsu.
Suddenly, he kicked Mifune hard in the stomach.
Mifune's eyes narrowed, and he instinctively leaped up to try and dodge.
Before he could even jump up, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen and was sent flying by Ci Xuan's kick.
"Boom——"
Mifune's body slammed heavily against the wall behind him, smashing a huge hole in it.
He landed in the world outside, where the wind and snow were raging.
Ci Xuan walked out slowly, step by step.
At the same time, seemingly on a whim, he finally began to explain everything about the Shell organization.
